Preparing for Easter. Decorating eggs, creative ideas

We continue speaking about the ways to decorate the eggs for Easter. Now let's see some hand-made variants

1. LACE and ELASTIC band (by Anna Golub).

  First cook hard-boiled eggs.

  Then mix 4 tablespoons of vinegar with 12 drops of blue food dye, and 2 cups of hot boiled water.
  Wrap the egg with lace cloth and fix it with elastic lace on the egg.
  Using a spoon, dip the egg into the vinegar first, then into the dye.
  Allow the eggs to dry.

 

2. Using punch and coloured paper (by Anna Golub)

3. Leaf pattern (by the member of the community)

For this method of dyeing eggs we need various leaves (parsley, coriander, basil), the old nylon stockings, thread, and onion peel (for the main colour). 

Fix leaves with a piece of nylon, carefully remove after coloring.

4. Decorate Easter eggs with beads and strass (from the member of the community).

Glue strips of double-sided tape to the egg. Sprinkle with colored sand for needlework. Shake off extra sand. 

Glue the tape for the stripes of another color. Sprinkle with sand, shake off extra sand.
Put a layer of the acrylic lacquer spray to the egg.
 

Instead of colored sand you can take beads or strass. Glue them with silicate glue randomly or make a particular pattern. The easiest way to draw stripes, crosses and flowers.
